West Bromwich Albion have confirmed Darren Moore as the club's head coach with an "improved and extended" contract.

He took on the role in an interim capacity in April.

Chief Executive Mark Jenkins:

We are delighted to confirm Darren as our new Head Coach and we look forward to his continuing the excellent work we saw when he stepped into the role in an interim capacity in the first week of April.

He embodies the spirit of the Club and the spirit of what we are striving to achieve in this new chapter ahead.

We conducted a thorough process of recruitment but Darren’s powerful impact on the pitch and across all areas of the Club established him as the outstanding candidate.

We suffered a torrid season but if there was a redeeming feature it was to see Darren at work over those final weeks, galvanising the Club and getting everyone positive again.

We all know we have a challenging summer ahead of us but from talking at length to Darren about his plans, they are challenges he is ready to meet head on.
